Different aspects of smart grid: An overview

Abstract

Smart grid involves the application of computer, transmission line, and networks into an inactive power distribution system. It is used to improve the maintenance, operations, and technologies of the smart grid, so that the component of the power grid can easily interchange data. However, concerns associated with communication and management must be addressed before full benefits of the smart grid can be accomplished. In this paper, all aspects that are relevant to smart grid communication and information technologies, and also its challenges, have been discussed.
